In the Flow on Effect series, hear from speakers from the HINE O TE KURA Youth Symposium on menstruation, to learn about ikura from a te ao Māori perspective, what to look for when trying to buy sustainable period products, and inclusive language to use round menstruation. Plus hear from a representative rower and former professional cricket player on their experiences menstruating and what they wish their younger selves knew.
